Mother’s Day is Every Day

Mother’s Day is everyday for the brave, loving, supportive, sacrificing and caring women who fill the role of mother. Happy Mother’s Day!

Mother’s day is every day if you are a mother or mother figure. Every day mothers are privileged to receive sloppy kisses, heartfelt hugs, handmade gifts, pampering and an outpouring of love and affection.

Sunday, May 12 is the day set aside in the United States to honor, celebrate, pamper and shower mothers with gifts, phone calls and cards of appreciation.

Whether you’re being feted with sloppy kisses, treated to a lovingly prepared meal, given a fragrant bouquet of your favorite flowers, you are blessed to witness mother’s day every day. Every day is Mother’s Day when we stop to celebrate the joys of motherhood.

A mother is someone who dreams great dreams for you, but then she lets you chase the dreams you have for yourself and loves you just the same.” – Author Unknown

Here is a different way to celebrate Mother’s Day or any day:

Write about your experiences, joys, memories, hopes and dreams on being a mother.

One of my most treasured possessions is a handwritten letter my mother wrote to me before she died. I often think about doing the same for my daughter. Maybe writing a letter or short booklet is not for you but perhaps this idea will prompt you to create a video or voice recording to tell your children what it means to be their mother, your hope for their future, parenting tips or anything else you want to share.

You may not complete this project by mother’s day and if not consider it a worthwhile goal to achieve later.

Mother’s Day is every day when you bask in the knowledge that you are an amazing mother, special, loved, honored and appreciated – not just on Mother’s Day but every day.
